Martha Stewart is asking for another shot at making her eponymous Netflix documentary, Martha, after revealing she wasn’t a fan of it.
During a recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, she told host Jimmy Fallon that while she wasn’t exactly “happy” with the film’s outcome, she said “the documentary is fine.”
“It left out a lot, so Im going to talk to them about maybe doing version two,” the 83-year-old lifestyle guru said. “Theres a lot more to my life. Ive lived a long time, and I just thought maybe weve left out some stuff, so. Good stuff.”

She then shook her head when asked if she loved working on the filming process with director R.J. Cutler. “i didn’t like it,” she said. “I dont like going to psychiatrists and talking about your feelings and all that stuff. And the director was so intense on delving.”
However, she praised Cutler’s cinematic style, adding that he had some “good stuff came out. He got some juice.”
Martha also dished that she’s writing an “even more revealing” autobiography. “Watch out, you dont know what Ill say about you,” she joked to Fallon.
The doc dropped on the streamer October 30 and she expressed her dissatisfaction at how the doc came out.
In an interview with the New York Times, she said: “R.J. had total access, and he really used very little. It was just shocking.
Martha continued: “Those last scenes with me looking like a lonely old lady walking hunched over in the garden? Boy, I told him to get rid of those. And he refused. I hate those last scenes. Hate them,” and added: “I had ruptured my Achilles tendon. I had to have this hideous operation. And so I was limping a little. But again, he doesnt even mention why that I can live through that and still work seven days a week.
In her critical review, she also did not like the musical choices made throughout the film. The New Jersey native told the news outlet: “I said to R.J., An essential part of the film is that you play rap music. Dr. Dre will probably score it, or Snoop or Fredwreck. I said, I want that music. And then he gets some lousy classical score in there, which has nothing to do with me.
